My German Shepherd Zorro is Very Protective of Me

What a cutie - looks like he's grinning!

Zorro just relaxing!

ZORRO is a sweet boy who loves his Momma (me) , and his tennis ball . I can walk out in the back yard and say '' ZORRO , where is your ball ? '' and he will go and get it and bring it to me for ''playtime ''

He loves his new Chihuahua adopted baby brother , Pistol , and is very gentle around him ( Pistol is 12 weeks old and weighs 2 pounds ...they are sweet together ) .

He HATES the vet with a passion . It's a '' battle royale '' when he goes so now we have to sedate him and muzzle him to carry him for checkups and shots . The sedatives work because last time we went he fell asleep in the exam room waiting on the doctor .

He is very , very protective of me and does not allow strangers around the house but if you walk out in the backyard with me and you let him smell the back of your hand , he's fine and will allow you to pet and love on him.

Overall he is one of the best pets I have had the pleasure of owning . I love him !!!
